Can you narrow this down to the path in question, i.e., make a small
reproduction case? Dumping and loading should not be locale/lang
sensitive. The fact that this problem happens with only FSFS and not
BDB is also weird.
The problem might not be in the dump itself, but in the attempt to
print output to the screen. We just made some fixes related to this
(see r12687 and r12692). Have you tried with the very latest trunk
Subversion?
